Detectives with the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office began an investigation in October 2024 after they were notified that Jarvis Harry, a teacher at a Mandeville-area high school, was reportedly paying students to send him pictures of their feet. Harry was on leave from his teaching position at the time the detectives received the report.
The investigation, which included going through hundreds of documents from social media accounts, obtaining phone records and conducting numerous interviews, revealed that not only was Harry paying students for feet pictures but he had also obtained other sexually explicit videos and pictures of students.
Warrants were issued for Harry’s arrest and he was located on March 13, 2025 in Tangipahoa Parish, where he was taken into custody and booked as a fugitive. He was transported to and booked into the St. Tammany Parish Correctional Center Monday (March 17, 2020) on one count of Indecent Behavior with Juveniles, 142 counts of Pornography Involving Juveniles, 60 counts of Computer Aided Solicitation of a Minor, 102 counts of Prohibited Sexual Conduct Between an Educator and Student.
Some of the students have been identified. However, detectives are still working to identify some of the students in the photos. Anyone who believe they or their child may be a victim of Harry, is asked to contact the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office by calling (985) 898-2338 as this is an ongoing investigation.
